    My brother in christ, you have no idea. The rise of the computer age and needing round the clock support for all that entails has really done a number on the working class. I am old enough to remember how chill work environments in the 80’s and early 90’s were. (Everyone smoking indoors sucked, though)

      I considered editing my comment to reference the rampant secondhand smoke.

      But yeah I just interviewed for a position with an on-call rotation. I asked them about sleeping hours, and then I asked them about attendance expectations in the face of a midnight emergency. They just blinked at me.

      The invention of clocks ruined the workday as well.
